[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpinsc:
I rooted with Revolt. long time ago, and my ROM is Infectedrom.

Android v 2.3.4

HTC Sense 3.5

software 2.11.605.5

Baseband 1.48.000.0930w_3,0.01.78.0916w_3

I have hboot to the PG05IMG.zip several times and it contains the latest radio files and give me good updates on the hboot screen, but still no 605.9.

Any ideas would be helpful,

Ron
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrocker23:
If im reading your post right, you have to flash a rom with 605.9 as its base. You flash roms through recovery not hboot. Flashing the radios will not change the software version..
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpinsc:
Okay, slightly confused. How do I tell if I have the latest radio file versions? I thought the Software number was the radio files version, 2.11.605.5. What should I be looking for?

My rom (Build number?), InfectedROM Eternity (Nightly), is fine and I assume its the latest and greatest.

You got a noob here, but trying--you and me!!

Can you flash a radio using Clockwork?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orkillakilla:
The Software version is NOT the radio version. If you go into settings, about phone, software info, more info, you should see baseband version under the kernel version. The baseband version is your radio version.

The latest radio that came with latest OTA is 0.01.78.0916w_3
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpinsc:
Thanks, therefore my radio is up to date (see first post). Can you unconfuse (if that is a word) me on what is 605.5 and 605.9 software version and where I should be.

Thanks for the reply,

Ron
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] number5toad:
605.5 and 605.9 are versions of the phone's official firmware, 605.9 being the most up to date. the newest radio in question was included in 605.9 as an update to the older radio, but it was extracted from that firmware release so that rooted users could update only the radio and not the entire firmware.

that's what you've done already.

if you're rooted and running a ROM that you like and works for you, there isn't any reason to upgrade your firmware version (especially since you've already installed the newest radio). if there are big features or changes in 605.9 that the developers want to include in their ROM, they will release a new version of that ROM for you to flash. also, 605.9 has caused most (all?) rooted users who accepted the upgrade to lose root.

basically - if you updated to the newest radio, everything works and you're happy with it, don't worry about it. keep an eye on your favorite ROM's thread for updates from those developers and don't sweat Verizon's official releases.

(please do correct me if I have any of that wrong!)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpinsc:
THANK YOU!!!!

I needed that education, but I am sure that was obvious. I will watch and wait my rom developer for additional updates.

BTW, the Rezound battery is GREAT. A little tight, and I should have polished the edges because it is gonna be hard taking it out.

However, thanks for that explanation....I feel so much better:):D.

I think when I get paid next I'm going to get a rezound battery. I get good battery life with the stock battery, so I'm sure I'll get great life with the rezound's

I am running 1.2 rooted and have CWM, I have run CM7 but keep having wifi issues and going back to rooted 1.2.

Is there a rooted 1.3 or 1.4 flashable rom I could update to?

I have looked in the development section but do not see what I am loking for!
[Nook Color General] votinh:
I thought the way to get there is restoring back to stock, say 1.3, then re-root

Can someone provide me a "zImage" from DDKQ5 of Galaxy Fit or from some other stock ROM (please specify from which one you provided)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] D@rekills4:
Seriously?

I am trying to make a OC Kernel and no one seems to be interested?

Bump.
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Deshabilitado:
i dont know whats a zImage, but if u explain me maybe i can help u :)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] D@rekills4:
Its basically consists of the Kernel...

I guess you can find it inside the TAR of any stock ROM.....

I sadly don't have a unlimited internet plan to download the whole firmware, so if someone could please provide it?
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Deshabilitado:

[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] D@rekills4:
Just extract using WinRAR or any other software you like and upload it to some file host like MediaFire and give me the link....
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] rajrocks:
Ok can u tell me were is it located in tar file ??
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] D@rekills4:
I don't know....

I don't have a Samsung Galaxy Fit so don't have any of its ROMs....

But still am gonna make a kernel for it...

I have a Samsung Galaxy 3 and in it's ROMs the zImage is right in the front after opening the TAR file.....

Isn't it right there in the front?
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] rajrocks:
Ok i will find it its named as "zImage" rite ???
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] D@rekills4:
Yeah right....

Thanks....

If possible you can try looking into other Stock ROMs too if you did not find it in DDKQ5.....

[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] vishwanathptl:
Kernel of G5 and GFit r different.... In G5 initramfs is in zimage and directly zImage is flashed.... But as in GFit v flash boot.img. So if u need zImage u need to extract boot.img and this initramfs is not included in zImage. After extracting boot.img u wil get initramfs and zImage....
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] D@rekills4:
Ahhhhh....

Very valuable info....

Thanks for stepping in :D

BTW what software are you guys using to extract files from "boot.img"?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] kensentme:
Just flashed this. Working just fine. But why did you remove "rawr" ? :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] remorema:
rawr is a void kernel feature.

since I moved to siyah in this version rawr is not availlable.

void development is stopped and siyah is working really smooth

if i find siyah to become unstable I'll revert to siyah on the next build

you can always flash void over this. but you'll lose a lot of governors, boot animation, and CWM app

have you tried new neak kernell. seems a decent alternative. I will test that and see if it doesnt break bt mouse support
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kensentme:
Well I've used Siyah previously before flashing your rom, and I was pretty happy with it, so I'll probably stick with it. Neak does sound intersesting though.

Would it be difficult for me to impletement rawr to Siyah? Just add a script somewhere or something?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] remorema:
really dont know. ask gokhan. he'll probably tell you to use other kernel for your e-boner. lolol

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeeJaay:
yes it is possible you just have to lower the bitrate of the video, also try using Handbrake

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kebong:
I can play 1080p music videos (around 500mb each) with no lags without the need of reencoding for lesser bitrates. I also play 720p movies (2gb file size) with subtitles without any lags; also without the need for it to be reencoded.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Julian2103:
The thing is, most of my movies are > 4gb hence I need to reencode sigh
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arkymedes:
Pretty much yes. Once you drop the file onto the shortcut, you will be presented with a menu. Very easy. All the explanation is in the thread and so far I found to be the best method to convert videos to Android. Speed and quality wise.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanej2006:
Sorry guys to butt in, just wanted to ask a question which relates to 720p playback and file size.

Why is there a limit in which anything over 4Gb in size cannot be viewed?

Basically a movie which happens to be 3.99Gb in size will work but a movie of 4.25Gb for example won't work?

There must be a solution or a way around this problem.

Say you own a 64Gb memory card, having several movies that are 5 or 6Gb in size is nothing and you could fit around 10 movies at one time on the card.

Would ICS have the same restriction with regards to file size?

I have several blu ray rips myself which are around 2.5Gb. However, most of them are 6Gb in size and some others 10 and even 15Gb in size....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EarlZ:
Just use handbreak and set the file size to 3.7Gb, no fuss no added config needed.

Its a file system limitation, you can check for the NTFS mod so that you can use files larger than 4GB. search the forums.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanej2006:

For all you mac users trying to get HD MKV's onto your Note, try Mkvtoolnix [had a link but can't post as I'm a new user].

It splits your mkv into parts (really quickly too) without quality degredation. You can even choose the size you want to split them at. A lot quicker than using Handbrake.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] idtheftvictim:
I don't understand, there are 3 different version of this phone, if not more. The I9100 is what? The international version? This is obviously the T-Mobile version, but are we able to use ROM's from any of the other versions of these phones? Maybe with some simple porting?

I don't have this phone yet, but will most likely get it in the next few weeks, and would like to know my options before upgrading...

TIA!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] New_here:
Firstly, I9100 and tmo (T989) have different chipsets and cpus. I9100 uses Enyxos cpus while t989 uses snapdragon. Their roms are very different and would not work with each other because of the chipset and cpus.

I do not believe I have seen a i9100 rom ported to t989. The skyrocket (another sgs2 variant), I have read that their roms can be used with the t989 but the auto rotation is a bit messed up. The safest thing to do is stick to the t989 roms and kernels.

[REPOST] MAYBE Exec_Anycode instead of kexec

>>>> This was my old post on bypass bootloader ideas thread, put here for completeness <<<<

*** MAY BE A POSSIBLE EXEC_ANYCODE logic instead of KEXEC***

NOTE: KEXEC tries to run another linux kernel, so may be its logic is more complicated, than if we are trying to run just any code in kernel or better privilage level. I haven't looked into kexec as of now, so I am only guessing about kexec complexity, beyond what I have mentioned below for my method (which again I haven't tried as of now, just a idea).

If one is trying to run something from memory when already in Linux, then one also has to worry about the privilage level at which the processor is running, as well as about page table mapping etc... If the other thing which we are trying to run is another kernel or x-loader or uboot or another bootloader for that matter.

So if kexec doesn't work, may be there is another option available which is to

a) Create a kernel module (NOTE: It runs with same privilages as the kernel) which does

a.1) Disable interrupts so that control doesn't get out of our code

a.2) Over write the reset vector with x-loader or what ever custom bootloader one wants to get control of.

a.3) Change the memory map to have a 1-to-1 map for the region where the code is currently running (or rather for the code which will be run in the next step) or overwrite a region which already has 1-to-1 map between Physical and Virtual addresses, with the code for the next steps. Go to next step.

a.4) Disable page tables (I haven't tried this before, ie after it has already been enabled, but I don't see any reason why ARM doesn't allow this - except for things like what we are trying).

a.5) Change to the reset ARM privilage level (If a soft reset doesn't do it already, haven't looked at ARM at this level for ages, so don't remember)

a.6) Trigger a soft reset

This should give control to the bootloader which we have loaded into the reset vector address. (Rather we should trap all possible exceptions i.e all the 8 or 16 or what ever is the number of exception addresses in the exception vector).

NOTE: If we are not able to change back to the reset time privilage level for the ARM processor, then we should be still able to have a modified Linux kernel, which doesn't try to switch ARM privilages if not required - this I have tried, ages ago, If I am not wrong as part of some other activity I had done.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] hkvc:
Current thoughts

Hi,

On thinking once again

a) We definately want to disable interrupts, so that we don't lose control other than for exceptions if at all.

b) We may have to stop the other processor if it is up in SMP, but I have noticed that most of the time, the other processor is shutdown in NookTab.(Have to think thro this bit more, later).

c) May be trap the TLB exception handler and inject custom pagetable till MMU is switched off (An idea for now, have to experiment a bit later). Rather than going thro the linux mmu code (am getting bit old, a decade back I would have done the required linux magic in few jiffies, but have been away from linux for too long now :-). OR force few entries into current/kernel linux memory map.

d) Copy

d.1) the core code required to manage stuff to a 1:1 mapped region.

d.2) Also the code required to jump to like (i.e the bootloader or what ever)

Other d.2) Or implement minimal code (as part of d.1) to read uart (oops - now that would have cut the complexity by 3/4th, but for people hating uart these days;-) or may be sd card and get a sector into memory (like x-loader).

e) Disable the mmu

f) Jump to the required code location of new universe

Today I did a quick running/jumping glance thro kexec code once, and even it does some what similar only, if I am not wrong, except for may be it not hijacking the TLB exception handler or having some junk for debugging or so ..., so I am not that off wrt the required idea.
